I'm back I guess. It's been some time since I last came here, occasionally lurked for a bit. I kinda lost interest in Pokemon shortly after BW's release, and of course I had homework, study, exams, etc. to worry about as well. Anyway, I'll (hopefully) start posting here a bit more often again.

Jeez well it's been a couple years since I've been on this site. I've recently gotten back into pokemon and so I decided to come back to these forums. I'm sure nobody remembers me and my old psypoke friends have probably moved on, but I hope to make some new friends on here. Haha, looking back at when I used to come on here I was such a typical "twelve-year-old on the internet" but I guess I'm more mature now Well I hope to make new friends and get back into the groove of things.

Obviously this isn't a goodbye or anything, but I'm going to be moving to a new house at the end of the week. If our previous move was anything to go by, it'll be a while before we get our internet turned on at the new house. As we got disconnected a week beforehand the last time we moved, I'm writing this now so I can get at least some sort of notice out in case that happens again.

Hopefully I can stay on until Friday when we start taking everything apart and boxing it up.

Well, I'm back guys. I haven't been active for a good while now, because school has been pretty hard on me as of lately, but I'm back, at least for now. I don't know if I'll be active for too long, but I know for certain I will be once summer vacation starts. So... yeah!

And I missed the cut for Werewolf! Gahh...

I know I had said I'd be back the Monday after I left, but our ISP (AT&T) made things immensely more complicated and delayed us for two weeks due to misdirection and incompetence.

When we were getting everything ready to be moved to our new house, we were told that U-verse was our only option in this area as far as what AT&T provided. So we bought the required equipment ($100) and had an appointment to have our internet reconnected the next Monday. The tech gets here and tells us that the U-verse box is 10,000 feet away and doesn't have any lines running from it; we would most likely be looking at getting U-verse in this area in the middle of next year. We called AT&T back and asked to have our DSL back, and they told us that, since we had moved, we are considered new customers and were not eligible for DSL. So we gave up on AT&T.

We started calling around for other options. Dish Network (our satellite provider) does provide internet...through U-verse. Of the two ISPs we could actually get, Comcast was the less crappy one at 3x the per-month price as we've had with AT&T and a $40 fee to send out the equipment. Right after we asked Comcast to send us their equipment, we called AT&T back to yell at them, and got someone on the line that told us that the whole "we don't offer DSL to new customers" thing was not actually a policy of theirs, and they could just give us an override. Which they bungled, as they just turned it back on at our previous address. Still, we decided to stick it out with AT&T for the moment after being given a glimmer of hope that we could resume our service with them.

After a week and a half of the aforementioned incompetence, we finally spoke to someone who knew what they were doing and got us reconnected this morning.

I must agree with that ^^; I use Cox Communication's "High Speed Internet" for my internet. It's not "high-speed" enough, in my opinion, but fast enough, I suppose. The customer service isn't as bad as Verizon was... though I miss Verizon >.>

Anyway, welcome back ulquiorra, twistedturtwig, Super_Typhlosion, Flaming_Wuzzle! I hope you guys stay active for a while~---And guess I'll have to say that I'm back for now too. I got done with the dreaded AP exams (I only had two, but still >.>), and I got no state standardized testing to study for (in Senior year of high school? Oh, pul-lease!), so... yeah.
